Barge 1 - Roll Off - November 2014

If you've been following our Blog, Twitter tweets, and Linked-in updates, you know the Houston, TX team at Hansa Meyer Global Transport has had a busy summer.  After trucking, storing and consolidating equipment from around the country to the Port of Houston and various lay-down sites, the team sucessfully loaded out 3 barges for a gas plant construction project.  Barge 1 made its way through the US intracoastal waterway nearly 2,000 miles to the destination.  The video below is a quick look at the first couple of pieces offloaded and taken to the plant.  Barges 2 & 3 are right behind it with a goal of delivering all the plant equipment before the coming holidays.  Dozens of truckloads are being delivered as well with on-site coordination.

The communication between all team members, our customer, fabricators, truckers, suppliers of all types, was executed with precision and attention to many, many details.  All of the critical information pertaining to this project was available in real-time, via a cloud-based tracking application Hansa Meyer makes available to its clients.

Enjoy the short video and as always, your comments and feedback are welcomed.
